What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Floor 17 is celebrated for its stunning panoramic city views and vibrant atmosphere, particularly during weekend evenings. Guests rave about the delicious food, creative cocktails, and attentive service, making it a memorable dining and drinking destination. While most experiences are positive, some visitors have noted occasional service inconsistencies or longer wait times during peak hours.
"My sister’s surprise proposal and a “Bittersweet” feeling from the service.
Although in the beginning, Janice, the events manager was giving us (me and my brother in law) a hard time 1 day prior to their anniversary, by putting the conditions to the “proposal at the terrace after dinner”, that were not mentioned during the initial agreement. I’d still like to say thank the Administration above for meeting us half way in the end, and special thanks to the amazing team: Irene, Dina and Sam for their incredible support in organizing the proposal on the day X. Your contributions helped make this unforgettable moment in my sister’s life even more special.
Although the event took place, and it was amazing experience because the administration “eventually” met us half way 1 day before the due date, though the pre-event experience where it almost got cancelled left a bitter taste, which I want to add as a feedback that the Events team need to work on.
Thank you!"

"Amazing restaurant with one of the best views of the entire city. The restaurant and sky bar are located on the top 3 floors of the Leonardo hotel. We started with a few cocktails on the rooftop bar which were delicious, my friends tried a few of their unique cocktails while I went for a really nice Negroni.
For dinner we started with some tartar and flat bread, both were delicious. The main was the star of the show though, the 700 gram cote de boeuf (perfectly medium rare) was out of this world, it was the first time I got to try this amazing cut. I'd also highly recommend trying the lamb chops & potato terrine!
The staff and atmosphere were also really good. Our waiter made sure that we were always well taken care of. The restaurant has a Modern but laid back interior. It's definitely a bit more to the high end side but still accessible for casual dining.
Overall, I really enjoyed my dinner at Floor17. If you like good views & great food, I'd highly recommend checking them out!"

"We are staying at the hotel so we decided to check out this restaurant.
We made a reservation for 2.
We were placed at a table around the corner from the main bar area in what felt like a secluded/segregated area, where there was 2 only 2 other tables eating.
Table next to us of 6 ordered a couple of minutes before us, had appetizers, dinner, coffee, and paid prior to us getting our meal.
Wait staff never came to check on us, they sat us took our order and left did not come back until they brought our food nearly an hour later. Wait staff very short with interactions, and we felt ignored.
We waited nearly an hour for a burger and the cod fish.
Upon receiving food Burger was very rare (which may be to the liking of others, but not mine). No staff had come to check to see how things were. Eventually called a staff member over and requested it be cooked to well done, they took it back. The other person I was with was done eating before I again received my burger. So I asked if they do takeout, they do not, but told me I could take my plate (a wooden plank) to my room if I am a hotel guest. Decided to stay and eat it, my burger still unfortunately was pink inside and not well done.
Fish was good. But small portion.
Would not recommend this restaurant."
